"Th-this is..."
At that moment, Naruto knew what world he had arrived in. He was excited, but he could not help feeling somewhat disappointed as well.
The nearest city he had leapt to was called Liao Province. It was one of the cities in Awen's world, and it was also part of the Northeast Three Provinces, yet it was not the same place. After all, people in Awen's world did not have brightly colored hair. This art style was obviously closer to his own.
"Ugh, I thought I'd come to Awen's world!"
Naruto did not even need to keep up his disguise now. He walked down the street, deliberately acting as natural as possible. Given his circumstances, he was basically an undocumented immigrant—someone who had sneaked across the border.
Suddenly, Naruto noticed that the conversation of three pedestrians who had just passed by caught his attention.
"Hey, look, look! Those guys next door who have it so good—their sacred shrine got struck by lightning! Serves them right, it really serves them right..."
"Hahahaha... Today is a good day, everything I wish for..."
"I heard from the news that some person suddenly appeared and started drawing. Then dark clouds gathered out of nowhere, and a huge bolt of lightning struck..."
"Tch, what's so impressive about summoning lightning? We've got the Archmage Liu Xiuniu..."
Naruto hurried after them and asked what had happened. When he learned that the shrine in Japan next door had been blown up, he was completely dumbfounded. After thanking them, a delighted smile spread across his face.
"Yakumo, it had to be her! Hahaha..."
Naruto laughed happily upon hearing the news. It was not just because the shrine had been blown up, but because he had found news of Yakumo Kurama.
There were too many people in this
